Hi,

In my NeoMutt config e.g. ~/.neomuttrc I have this setup for multiple 
account switching:

# Default account
source "~/.neomutt/neomutt.account.acc1"

# Folder hooks
folder-hook 'neomutt.account.acc1' 'source ~/.neomutt/neomutt.account.acc1'
folder-hook 'neomutt.account.acc2' 'source ~/.neomutt/neomutt.account.acc2'

# Macros to switch accounts
macro index <f2> "<enter-command>unmailboxes *<enter><enter-command>source ~/.neomutt/neomutt.account.acc1<enter><sync-mailbox><change-folder>!<enter>"
macro index <f3> "<enter-command>unmailboxes *<enter><enter-command>source ~/.neomutt/neomutt.account.acc2<enter><sync-mailbox><change-folder>!<enter>"

And then, when NeoMutt is running, pressing F2 or F3 switches from one
account to another.
Please note that ~/.neomutt/neomutt.account.acc{1,2} has account
configuration for each account.

Hope this helps.

There is an entry in ArchLinux Wiki
(https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Mutt#Multiple_accounts) on how to
setup multiple accounts in Mutt.

With regards,
Nikola
